Description

INHIBITOR COMPOUNDS AND METHODS OF USING
THE SAME FOR THE TREATMENT OF CANCER
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
[1] The disclosure relates generally to methods for preparing compounds which inhibit PI3 kinase activity. The disclosure also relates to methods of using the compounds for in vitro, in situ, and in vivo diagnosis or treatment of mammalian cells, or associated pathological conditions. The disclosure also relates to methods of treating cancer characterized by the overexpression of PI3 kinase.
BACKGROUND

[2] Any discussion of the prior art throughout the specification should in no way be considered as an admission that such prior art is widely known or forms part of the common general knowledge in the field. Phosphatidylinositol is one of a number of phospholipids found in cell membranes which play an important role in intracellular signal transduction.
Cell signaling via 3'-phosphorylated phosphoinositides has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes, e.g., malignant transformation, growth factor signaling, inflammation, and immunity (Rameh et al. (1999) J. Biol Chem, 274:8347-8350). The enzyme responsible for generating these phosphorylated signaling products, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (also referred to as PI 3-kinase or PBK), was originally identified as an activity associated with viral oncoproteins and growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases that phosphorylate phosphatidylinositol (PI) and its phosphorylated derivatives at the 3'-hydroxyl of the inositol ring (Panayotou et al. (1992) Trends Cell Biol 2:358-60).

[3] Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3K) are lipid kinases that phosphorylate lipids at the 3-hydroxyl residue of an inositol ring (Whitman et al. (1988) Nature, 332:664). The 3-phosphorylated phospholipids (PIP3s) generated by P13-kinases act as second messengers recruiting kinases with lipid binding domains (including plekstrin homology (PH) regions), such as AKT and phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK1). Binding of AKT to membrane PIP3s causes the translocation of AKT to the plasma membrane, bringing AKT
into contact with PDK1, which is responsible for activating AKT. The tumor-suppressor phosphatase, PTEN, dephosphorylates PIP3 and therefore acts as a negative regulator of AKT
activation. The P13-kinases AKT and PDK1 are important in the regulation of many cellular processes including cell cycle regulation, proliferation, survival, apoptosis and motility and are significant components of the molecular mechanisms of diseases such as cancer, diabetes and immune inflammation (Vivanco et al. (2002) Nature Rev. Cancer 2:489;
Phillips et al.
(1998) Cancer 83:41).

[4] The main P13-kinase isoform in cancer is the Class I P13-kinase, p110a (alpha) (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,824,492; U.S. Pat. No. 5,846,824; U.S. Pat. No.
6,274,327). Other isoforms are implicated in cardiovascular and immune-inflammatory disease (Workman P
(2004) Biochem Soc Trans 32:393-396; Patel et al. (2004) Proceedings of the American Association of Cancer Research (Abstract LB-247) 95th Annual Meeting, March 27-31, Orlando, Fla., USA; Ahmadi K and Waterfield M D (2004) Encyclopedia of Biological Chemistry (Lennarz W J, Lane M D eds) Elsevier/Academic Press). The PI3 kinase/Akt/PTEN pathway is an attractive target for cancer drug development since such modulating or inhibitory agents would be expected to inhibit proliferation, reverse the repression of apoptosis and surmount resistance to cytotoxic agents in cancer cells (Folkes et al. (2008) J. Med. Chem. 51:5522-5532; Yaguchi et al. (2006) Jour. of the Nat.
Cancer Inst.
98(8):545-556).

[5] Malignant gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors in adults. In glioblastoma (GBM), the most aggressive glioma subtype, tumor formation and growth appear to be driven by amplification or overexpression of gene products involved in growth factor-initiated signal transduction acting in cooperation with genetic alterations disrupting cell-cycle control (Holland E C (2001) Nat Rev Genet 2:120-129). Of the genomic alterations described in GBM, PTEN mutation and/or deletion is the most common, with an estimated frequency of 70-90% (Nutt C, Louis D N (2005) Cancer of the Nervous System (McGraw-Hill, New York), 2nd Ed, pp 837-847.). These findings, along with the prognostic value of PTEN status in GBM cases (Phillips H S, et al. (2006) Cancer Cell 9:157-163), suggest the importance of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway in promoting highly aggressive glial malignancies, as well as the opportunities for treatment with PI3K inhibitors possessing blood-brain barrier penetrant properties.

[6] Certain tricyclic PI3K inhibitor compounds of Formula III (below) disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 8,883,799 have been discovered to possess PI3 kinase modulating or inhibitory activity, anti-cancer properties, anti-inflammatory properties and/or immunoregulatory properties.

-35-[90] In some particular aspects, compound Formulae III and Ma is:
N

N N
Illat N N112 =
[91] In some aspects, it has been discovered that precipitation or crystallization of Formula III and Ma (collectively referred to as Formula III) from the reaction mixture may be induced by addition of water, methanol, ethanol, n-propanol or i-propanol to the reaction mixture to form Formula III crystals or precipitate that may be cleanly separated using, for example, solid-liquid separation techniques known in the art. In some particular aspects the polar protic solvent is water. In such aspects, the polar protic solvent is added to the reaction mixture to a final concentration of at least 25 v/v%, at least 40 v/v%, at least 50 v/v%, at least 60 v/v%, or at least 70 v/v%. In such aspects, the volume ratio of the solvent system in the reaction mixture to polar protic solvent added to the reaction product mixture is from about 1:5 v/v to about 5:1 v/v, from about 1:3 v/v to about 3:1 v/v, from about 1:2 v/v to about 2:1 v/v, from about 1:1.5 v/v to about 1.5:1 v/v, or about 1:1 v/v. In any of the various aspects, the polar protic solvent (e.g., water) may be added to the reaction mixture at the reaction temperature, or at a lower temperature. After addition, the reaction mixture-polar protic solvent admixture may optionally be held at reaction temperature or from about 10 C to about 20 C lower than the reaction temperature for from about 0.5 hours to about 8 hours or from about 1 hour to about 4 hours. The admixture may then be further cooled to from about 0 C to about 10 C and held for from about 0.5 hours to about 8 hours, or from about 1 hour to about 4 hours, to complete crystallization of Formula III. In some aspects, in a first step, the temperature may be reduced to from about 10 C to about 30 C and held from about 0.5 hours to about 8 hours or from about 1 hour to about 4 hours and then cooled to 0 C to about C in a second step held from about 0.5 hours to about 8 hours or from about 1 hour to about 4 hours. In some other aspects, Formula III seed crystals may be added to induce crystallization. Formula III solids may be isolated by solid-liquid separation techniques generally known in the art such as filtration and centrifugation. Optionally, the collected Formula III solids may be washed with additional polar aprotic solvent.

-36-[92] Formulae II, Ha, III and Ma may be isolated from the reaction mixture and purified by various methods generally known in the art. Formula III reaction mixtures may comprise some amount of side product (such as Impurities 1 to 5 disclosed, in the examples), unreacted Formula II and palladium. In some aspects of the disclosure, Formulae II, ha, III
and Ma reaction mixtures and/or isolated compounds may be purified by one or more purification methods. The desired product(s) of each step or series of steps is separated and/or purified (hereinafter separated) to the desired degree of purity by the techniques common in the art. Formulae II, ha and III may be isolated from the reaction mixture and/or purified by various methods including: (i) precipitation or crystallization such as by evaporation, cooling and/or addition of an anti-solvent in optional further combination with seed crystal addition; (ii) extraction, such as multiphase extraction; (iii) evaporation or distillation to form a solid residue comprising the Formulae II, Ha or III;
(iv) ultrafiltration;
(v) chromatography; (vi) reverse phase HPLC; (vii) sublimation; (viii) chelation; and/or (ix) combinations thereof Chromatography can involve any number of methods including, for example: reverse-phase and normal phase; size exclusion; ion exchange; high, medium and low pressure liquid chromatography methods and apparatus; small scale analytical; simulated moving bed (SMB) and preparative thin or thick layer chromatography, as well as techniques of small scale thin layer and flash chromatography.
[93] In chelation methods, Formula III is admixed with a reagent selected to bind to or render otherwise separable a desired product, unreacted starting material, reaction by product, or the like. Such reagents include adsorbents or absorbents such as activated carbon, molecular sieves, ion exchange media, or the like. Alternatively, the reagents can be acids in the case of a basic material, bases in the case of an acidic material, binding reagents such as antibodies, binding proteins, selective chelators such as crown ethers, liquid/liquid ion extraction reagents (LIX), or the like. In one chelation purification method, Formula III is processed to remove residual palladium in a method whereby Formulae III is admixed with a metal scavenger in a solvent system in which Formula III is soluble. The temperature of the admixture is increased to dissolve the compound of Formula III, the solution is held for a period of time, and the solution is filtered to remove chelated palladium.
Formula III may then be crystallized from the filtered solution as described elsewhere herein.
In some aspects:
(i) the solvent system comprises water and acetic acid, or consists essentially of water and acetic acid, wherein the volume ratio of acetic acid to water is from about 1:1 to about 10:1, from about 1:1 to about 5:1 or from about 1:1 to about 3:1, or about 3:1; (ii) the metal

-37-scavenger is silica-thiol; and (iii) the dissolution temperature is from about 80 C to about 100 C, the seed crystals are combined with the filtrate at a temperature of from about 70 C to about 80 C, and the crystallization temperature is from about 0 C to about 10 C.
[94] In any of the various aspects of the disclosure, the yield of compound Formula III is at least 75%, at least 80% at least 85% or at least 90%. The purity of compound Formula III is at least 97%, at least 97.5%, or at least 98% (area%, as determined by HPLC).
[95] In one or more of the above-noted reactions, the solvent may suitably be water and THF at a ratio of water to THF of about 1:5 w/w, the organoboron-R4 may suitably be 5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethy1-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)pyrimidin-2-amine, the catalyst may suitably be Xphos (e.g., Xphos PdG1, Xphos PdG2 and Xphos PdG3) the base may suitably be K3PO4, and the reaction temperature may suitably be about 55 C to about 75 C. From about 0.8 to about 1.2 volumes of water based on the volume of the reaction mixture may suitably be admixed with the reaction product mixture, and the admixture may suitably be cooled to from about 10 C to about 30 C to form crystallized or precipitated reaction product.
[96] The Formula III compounds of the disclosure may contain asymmetric or chiral centers, and therefore exist in different stereoisomeric forms. It is intended that all stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of the disclosure, including but not limited to, diastereomers, enantiomers and atropisomers, as well as mixtures thereof such as racemic mixtures, form part of the present disclosure.
[97] In addition, the present disclosure embraces all geometric and positional isomers. For example, if a Formula III compound incorporates a double bond or a fused ring, the cis- and trans-forms, as well as mixtures thereof, are embraced within the scope of the disclosure. Both the single positional isomers and mixture of positional isomers are also within the scope of the present disclosure.
[98] In the structures shown herein, where the stereochemistry of any particular chiral atom is not specified, then all stereoisomers are contemplated and included as the compounds of the disclosure. Where stereochemistry is specified by a solid wedge or dashed line representing a particular configuration, then that stereoisomer is so specified and defined.
[99] Diastereomeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical chemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art, such as by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization.
Enantiomers can be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diastereomeric mixture by reaction

-38-with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher's acid chloride), separating the diastereomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individual diastereoisomers to the corresponding pure enantiomers. Also, some of the compounds of the present disclosure may be atropisomers (e.g., substituted biaryls) and are considered as part of this disclosure. Enantiomers can also be separated by use of a chiral HPLC column.
[100] A single stereoisomer, e.g., an enantiomer, substantially free of its stereoisomer may be obtained by resolution of the racemic mixture using a method such as formation of diastereomers using optically active resolving agents (Eliel, E.
and Wilen, S.
"Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds," John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 1994;
Lochmuller, C. H., (1975) J. Chromatogr., 113(3):283-302). Racemic mixtures of chiral compounds of the disclosure can be separated and isolated by any suitable method, including:
(1) formation of ionic, diastereomeric salts with chiral compounds and separation by fractional crystallization or other methods, (2) formation of diastereomeric compounds with chiral derivatizing reagents, separation of the diastereomers, and conversion to the pure stereoisomers, and (3) separation of the substantially pure or enriched stereoisomers directly under chiral conditions. See: "Drug Stereochemistry, Analytical Methods and Pharmacology," Irving W. Wainer, Ed., Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York (1993).
[101] Under method (1) above, diastereomeric salts can be formed by reaction of enantiomerically pure chiral bases such as brucine, quinine, ephedrine, strychnine, a-methyl-0-phenylethylamine (amphetamine), and the like with asymmetric compounds bearing acidic functionality, such as carboxylic acid and sulfonic acid. The diastereomeric salts may be induced to separate by fractional crystallization or ionic chromatography. For separation of the optical isomers of amino compounds, addition of chiral carboxylic or sulfonic acids, such as camphorsulfonic acid, tartaric acid, mandelic acid, or lactic acid can result in formation of the diastereomeric salts.
[102] Alternatively, by method (2) above, the substrate to be resolved is reacted with one enantiomer of a chiral compound to form a diastereomeric pair (E. and Wilen, S.
"Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds", John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1994, p.
322).
Diastereomeric compounds can be formed by reacting asymmetric compounds with enantiomerically pure chiral derivatizing reagents, such as methyl derivatives, followed by separation of the diastereomers and hydrolysis to yield the pure or enriched enantiomer. A
method of determining optical purity involves making chiral esters of the racemic mixture,

-39-such as a methyl ester, for example with (¨) methyl chloroformate, in the presence of base, or Mosher ester, a-methoxy-a-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl acetate (Jacob III. J. Org.
Chem. (1982) 47:4165), and analyzing the 1H NMR spectrum for the presence of the two atropisomeric enantiomers or diastereomers. Stable diastereomers of atropisomeric compounds can be separated and isolated by normal- and reverse-phase chromatography following methods for separation of atropisomeric naphthyl-isoquinolines (WO 1996/015111). By method (3) above, a racemic mixture of two enantiomers can be separated by chromatography using a chiral stationary phase ("Chiral Liquid Chromatography" (1989) W. J. Lough, Ed., Chapman and Hall, New York; Okamoto, J. Chromatogr., (1990) 513:375-378). Enriched or purified enantiomers can be distinguished by methods used to distinguish other chiral molecules with asymmetric carbon atoms, such as optical rotation and circular dichroism.
[103] The compounds of the present disclosure may exist in unsolvated as well as solvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, and the like, and it is intended that the disclosure embrace both solvated and unsolvated forms.
[104] The compounds of the present disclosure may also exist in different tautomeric forms, and all such forms are embraced within the scope of the disclosure. The term "tautomer" or "tautomeric form" refers to structural isomers of different energies which are interconvertible via a low energy barrier. For example, proton tautomers (also known as prototropic tautomers) include interconversions via migration of a proton, such as keto-enol and imine-enamine isomerizations. Valence tautomers include interconversions by reorganization of some of the bonding electrons.
[105] The present disclosure also embraces isotopically-labeled compounds of the present disclosure which are identical to those recited herein, but for the fact that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. All isotopes of any particular atom or element as specified are contemplated within the scope of the compounds of the disclosure, and their uses. Exemplary isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the disclosure include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine, chlorine and iodine, such as 2H (D), 3H, nc, 13c, 14c, 13N, 15N, 150, 170, 180, 32p, 33p, 35s, 18F, 36c1, 1231 and 1251. Certain isotopically-labeled compounds of the present disclosure (e.g., those labeled with 3H and 14C) are useful in compound and/or substrate tissue distribution assays.
Tritiated (3H) and carbon-14 (14C) isotopes are useful for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e., 2H) may

-40-afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Positron emitting isotopes such as 150, 13N, and 18F
are useful for positron emission tomography (PET) studies to examine substrate receptor occupancy.
Isotopically labeled compounds of the present disclosure can generally be prepared by following procedures analogous to those disclosed in the Schemes and/or in the Examples herein by substituting an isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent.
B. ANNULATION
[106] In the annulation (ring forming) reaction of reaction scheme (2): each R5, each R1 and each R15 is independently selected from H, Ci-Cio hydrocarbyl or from Cl-05 hydrocarbyl, wherein each hydrocarbyl is optionally substituted; two geminal R5 groups, R1 groups and/or R15 groups together are oxo or together form a 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7-membered carbocyclyl or heterocyclyl, wherein the carbocyclyl or heterocyclyl is optionally substituted.
Rzo is -OH or -NHR21; R21 is as defined for R5; and R2 in the ring formed in Formula ha is -0- or -NR21-. Mor is an optionally substituted morpholine ring. X is halogen (e.g., Br, I or Cl).

or a salt thereof, and a further active pharmaceutical ingredient or ingredients, including cytotoxic agents. If the administration is not simultaneous, the compounds are administered in a close time proximity to each other. Furthermore, it does not matter if the compounds are administered in the same dosage form, e.g. one compound may be administered topically and another compound may be administered orally.
[143] Those additional agents may be administered separately from an inventive compound-containing composition, as part of a multiple dosage regimen.
Alternatively, those agents may be part of a single dosage form, mixed together with a compound of this invention in a single composition. If administered as part of a multiple dosage regime, the two active agents may be submitted simultaneously, sequentially or within a period of time from one another normally within five hours from one another.
[144] As used herein, the term "combination," "combined," and related terms refers to the simultaneous or sequential administration of therapeutic agents in accordance with this invention. For example, a compound of the present invention may be administered with another therapeutic agent simultaneously or sequentially in separate unit dosage forms or together in a single unit dosage form. Accordingly, the present invention provides a single unit dosage form comprising a compound of Formula III, an additional therapeutic agent, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, adjuvant, or vehicle.
[145] The amount of both an inventive compound and additional therapeutic agent (in those compositions which comprise an additional therapeutic agent as described above) that may be combined with the carrier materials to produce a single dosage form will vary depending upon the host treated and the particular mode of administration. In certain embodiments, compositions of this invention are formulated such that a dosage of between 0.01 - 100 mg/kg body weight/day of an inventive can be administered.
[146] Typically, any agent that has activity against a disease or condition being treated may be co-administered. Examples of such agents can be found in Cancer Principles and Practice of Oncology by V.T. Devita and S. Hellman (editors), 6th edition (February 15,

-55-2001), Lippincott Williams & Wilkins Publishers. A person of ordinary skill in the art would be able to discern which combinations of agents would be useful based on the particular characteristics of the drugs and the disease involved.
[147] In one embodiment, the treatment method includes the co-administration of a compound of Formula III or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and at least one cytotoxic agent. The term "cytotoxic agent" as used herein refers to a substance that inhibits or prevents a cellular function and/or causes cell death or destruction.
Cytotoxic agents include, but are not limited to, radioactive isotopes (e.g., At211, 1131, 1125, y90, Re186, Re188, sm153, Bi212, 1332, pb212 and radioactive isotopes of Lu); chemotherapeutic agents; growth inhibitory agents; enzymes and fragments thereof such as nucleolytic enzymes;
and toxins such as small molecule toxins or enzymatically active toxins of bacterial, fungal, plant or animal origin, including fragments and/or variants thereof [148] In some embodiments, the PI3 kinase inhibitors of the present disclosure are administered to a patient with an additional therapeutic agent selected from a chemotherapeutic agent, an anti-angigenesis therapeutic agent, an anti-inflammatory agent, an immunomodulatory agent, a neurotropic factor, an agent for treating cardiovascular disease, an agent for treating liver disease, an anti-viral agent, an agent for treating blood disorders, an agent for treating diabetes, and an agent for treating immunodeficiency disorders. In some such embodiments, the additional therapeutic agent is bevacizumab. In some other such embodiments, the additional therapeutic agent is temozolomide.
[149] Exemplary cytotoxic agents can be selected from anti-microtubule agents, platinum coordination complexes, alkylating agents, antibiotic agents, topoisomerase II
inhibitors, antimetabolites, topoisomerase I inhibitors, hormones and hormonal analogues, signal transduction pathway inhibitors, non-receptor tyrosine kinase angiogenesis inhibitors, immunotherapeutic agents, proapoptotic agents, inhibitors of LDH-A; inhibitors of fatty acid biosynthesis; cell cycle signaling inhibitors; HDAC inhibitors, proteasome inhibitors; and inhibitors of cancer metabolism.

For purposes of this invention, beneficial or desired clinical results include, but are not limited to, alleviation of symptoms, diminishment of extent of disease, stabilized (i.e., not worsening) state of disease, delay or slowing of disease progression, amelioration or

-70-palliation of the disease state, and remission (whether partial or total), whether detectable or undetectable. "Treatment" can also mean prolonging survival as compared to expected survival if not receiving treatment. Those in need of treatment include those already with the condition or disorder as well as those prone to have the condition or disorder or those in which the condition or disorder is to be prevented.
[185] The phrase "therapeutically effective amount" means an amount of a compound of the present invention that (i) treats or prevents the particular disease, condition, or disorder, (ii) attenuates, ameliorates, or eliminates one or more symptoms of the particular disease, condition, or disorder, or (iii) prevents or delays the onset of one or more symptoms of the particular disease, condition, or disorder described herein. In the case of cancer, the therapeutically effective amount of the drug may reduce the number of cancer cells; reduce the tumor size; inhibit (i.e., slow to some extent and preferably stop) cancer cell infiltration into peripheral organs; inhibit (i.e., slow to some extent and preferably stop) tumor metastasis; inhibit, to some extent, tumor growth; and/or relieve to some extent one or more of the symptoms associated with the cancer. To the extent the drug may prevent growth and/or kill existing cancer cells, it may be cytostatic and/or cytotoxic. For cancer therapy, efficacy can be measured, e.g., by assessing the time to disease progression (TTP) and/or determining the response rate (RR).

Compound 3 Compound 4 [198] Compound 3 (310 g, 100 mol%) and tetrahydrofuran (4.0 L, 13 vol.) were added to a 12 L round bottom flask and a reaction solution was formed. The solution was cooled to -10 C and i-PrMgC1 (287 mL, 2.0 M in THF) was added while maintaining the temperature at less than or equal to -5 C. A reaction mixture was formed by combining n-BuLi (421 mL, 2.5 M in hexane) with the reaction solution while maintaining the temperature at less than or equal to -5 C. The reaction mixture was maintained at less than or equal to -5 C until analysis by HPLC indicated that compound 3 was no more than 5 area percent by HPLC ("A%"). Acid was added to the reaction mixture that was then quenched by adding H20 (8.0 L, 0 C). The layers were separated, and the aqueous phase was extracted with MTBE (1.5 L). The combined organic extracts were washed with saturated aqueous NaC1 (1.5 L), then concentrated to near dryness. i-PrOH (1.5 L) was combined with the organic extracts and the admixture was concentrated to near dryness. The concentrate was transferred to a 2 L round bottom flask, combined with 2-propanol (1 L), and heated at 50 C for 3 h.
The mixture was cooled to 25 C to form a slurry by crystallization and held at that temperature for 12 h. The slurry was then cooled to 0 C, held at that temperature for 3 h, filtered to isolate a filter cake, and washed with cold 2-propanol (200 mL).
The filter cake was dried in vacuo at 50 C for 12 h. The process yielded 329 g of compound 4 (90% yield) as an off-white solid. About a 3% loss of compound 4 was noted during crystallization.
[199] In a scale up evaluation, to compound 3 (40.80 kg, 126.01 mol, 100 mol%) in anhydrous THF (408 L, 10 vol) was added a solution of i-PrMgC1 (1.0 M in THF, 82 L,

-76-82.00 mol, 65 mol%) at -15 C under N2, followed by the addition of n-BuLi (2.5 M in hexane, 55 L, 137.50 mol, 109 mol%) between -10 C and -5 C. After 30 min at this temperature acetone (16.20 kg, 278.92 mol, 221 mol%) was added slowly to the solution. The reaction mixture was stirred 2 h at -10 5 C until HPLC analysis showed compound 3 to be no more than 1.0A% (2 h). The mixture was then transferred to a reactor containing water (40.80 kg, 1 vol) at 0 to 5 C, the mixture was agitated for 5 min, and the layers were separated. The aqueous phase was extracted with MTBE (136 L, 3.3 vol). The combined organic extracts were washed with brine (119 L, 2.9 vol), dried over Na2SO4 (34 kg), filtered, and evaporated to provide the crude product. The yellow residue was suspended in 2-propanol (204 L, 5 vol) and the resulting slurry was heated to 50 C for 60 min. The slurry was cooled to 25 C over 2 h and then cooled to 0 to 5 C over 1 h. The product was collected by filtration, washed with cold 2-propanol (40.8 L, 1 vol), and dried under vacuum at 55 C for 12 h to afford 42.50 kg of compound 4 (91% yield) as an off-white powder: mp 181 C; 11-1 NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) ö 6.27 (dd, 1H), 5.81 (s, 1H), 4.15 (vbs, 4H), 4.05 (m, 1H), 3.69 (m, 4H), 3.55 (m, 1H), 1.97 (m, 1H), 1.70 (m, 1H), 1.60 (s, 3H), 1.56 (m, 3H), 1.53 (s, 3H); 13C NMR (125 MHz, DMSO-d6) ö 155.2, 154.0, 153.7, 152.3, 117.1, 84.3, 70.0, 68.5, 66.5, 45.8, 30.5, 29.7, 28.0, 25.0, 23.5.

Compound 7 GDC-0084 [208] In a Suzuki cross-coupling reaction, compound 7 (138 g, 100 mol%), 5-(4,4,5,5-tetramethy1-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)pyrimidin-2-amine ("pinocolboronate") (113 g, 120 mol%), dioxane (1.7 L), and potassium phosphate (aq. 3.0 M, 284 mL, 200 mol%) were combined in a 3 L round bottom flask. The structure of pinocolboronate was verified by NMR (see Figures 9 and 10). The contents were sparged with N2 for 30 min, PdC12dppf=CH2C12 (6.96 g, 2 mol%) was then charged, and the admixture was sparged with N2 for 10 min. The mixture was heated to 80 C and then held at that temperature for 2 h, after which analysis by HPLC showed complete consumption of compound 7. The admixture was transferred to a 12 L round bottom flask, water was added (6.8 L), the mixture was cooled to 5 C, filtered, and the filter cake was washed with water (2 x 500 mL). The filter cake was dried in vacuo at 50 C for 12 h. The resulting crude GDC-0084 was transferred to a 5 L round bottom flask and combined with THF (3.2 L), HOAc (1.6 L), and water (480 mL). The admixture was heated to 50 C and Si-(CH2)35H ("Si-Thiol") (80 g) was added to the resulting solution. The admixture was held 3 h at 50 C, cooled to ambient

-79-temperature and held for 12 h. The mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite/silica gel and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. The resulting pale brown solid was transferred to a 5 L round bottom flask and combined with THF (3.2 L), HOAc (1.6 L), and water (480 mL).
The admixture was heated to 50 C and THF (100 mL) was added to obtain a clear solution.
In order to improve the color of the solution, Si-Thiourea (80 g) was added, the mixture was held 2 h at 50 C and then filtered while hot through a 2 mm Teflon filter.
The resulting pale yellow solution was distilled to dryness, slurried with n-butanol (3 L), filtered, and washed with heptane (2 x 1 L). The washed filtrate was dried in vacuo at 70 C for 24 h. The process gave 149 g GDC-0084 (91% yield over 2 steps) as a yellow crystalline solid.
Purity by HPLC was 98.9 A% with the major impurities identified as Impurity-1 and Impurity-2 illustrated below, and a residual Pd level of 12 ppm.

[210] Example 7: Annulation of aminoalcohol Compound 5 to form fused morpholine Compound 7 [211] The effect of solvent, base and reaction temperature for the alkylation of compounds 5 with 1,2-dibromoethane to form compound 7 was evaluated. Table 1 below lists the combination of process parameters and reagents and associated reaction conversion for Experiments 1 to 10 where Experiments 1 to 8 were performed on a 0.3 g scale, Experiment 9 was done on a 60 g scale, and Experiment 10 was done on a 100 g scale.
Experiments 1 to 8 were conducted by combining the reagents (1.0 mmol of compound 5) with 1.5 mL solvent in vials with stir bar mixing at ambient temperature followed by elevation to reaction temperature. The reactions for experiments 9 and 10 were done by mixing the reagents with mechanical mixing at ambient temperature followed by elevation to reaction temperature. For Experiment 9, 1,2-dibromoethane was added drop-wise over 1

-80-hour to the heated reaction mixture and an exotherm was observed. For Experiment 10, compound 5 was added in two portions to the heated reaction mixture with 1 hour between additions.

The reaction was found to be exothermic at larger scale, and dose-control additions were investigated to mitigate possible safety risk. Slow addition of 1,2-dibromoethane to a mixture of compound 5 and K2CO3 (experiment 9) did not adversely affect the conversion, but did lead to the formation of impurity 5 (below).

Impurity-5 [213] The exothermic annulation reaction was further examined by reaction calorimetry. In a first experiment, an Advanced Reactive System Screening Tool (ARSST114) found a reaction exotherm at 45 C and an exothermic decomposition temperature (TD24 ¨ the temperature at which time-to-maximum-rate is 24 hours) of 185 C. ARSTT
methodology is known in the art and is available from Fauske & Associates, Inc. See, for instance, James P.
Burlebach, "Advanced Reactive System Screening Tool (ARSST)", North American Thermal Analysis Society, 28th Annual Conference, Orlando, Oct. 4-6, 2000. In a second calorimetry experiment, integration of the reaction heat flow curve in an isothermal reaction calorimeter at 90 C showed an adiabatic temperature rise of 76.5 C, an exotherm that was dose-controlled by portion-wise addition of compound 5. Taken together, the calorimetry data indicates that the exotherm may be effectively controlled by employing dose-controlled addition.
[214] Example 8: Study of Suzuki Coupling Process Parameters [215] Various process parameters were investigated for the Suzuki cross coupling reaction of compound 7 with pinocolboronate to yield GDC-0084. The reactions for each experiment were done by mixing the reagents indicated in Table 2 at ambient temperature

-82-and then heating with mixing. The reactions were done in vials by mixing the reagents (0.9 mmol of compound 7) in the solvent (3.9 mL) at a solvent ratio of 10:1 at ambient temperature, evacuating and backfilling with nitrogen, sealing the vials, and then heating the sealed vials. Each of experiments 1, 2 and 4 to 7 were reacted for 2 hours at 80 C. The experiment 3 reaction was run for 10 hours.

[216] In terms of catalyst loading, conversion was found to be slow at 1 mol%.
The conversion was found to be high in most solvents.
[217] Example 9: Solubility Tests [218] The solubility of GDC-0084 in various mono- and ternary-solvent systems was measured at 50 C, wherein each ternary solvent mixture had a solvent ratio of 67:24:9 on a volume basis. The solubility results are indicated in Table 3 below in wt%

In a series of experiments, 5 g solutions of GDC-0084 in THF/HOAc (2:1 ratio) comprising 2400 ppm Pd were exposed to a variety of metal scavengers (at 20 wt% loading) at 55 C for 14 h, followed by filtration and concentration of the filtrate, and analysis of the resulting purified GDC-0084 for palladium content. The scavengers included: 0.3-0.8 mm porous carbon beads having a 1200 m2/g surface area ("Quadrapure C"); 100 mesh activated carbon (Darco G-60); greater than 45 p.m activated carbon ("Darco KB-G"); ("SiTAACoNa"); Si-(CH2)3NHC(=S)NHCH3 ("Si-Thiourea");

The admixture was heated to 103 C, held at that temperature for 2 h, and then cooled to 50 C. HPLC IPC showed compound 5 to be 0.05 A%, and Impurity 4 to be 3.9 A%. The second portion of compound 5 (2.82 kg, 9.47 mol, 48 mol%) was charged to the reactor. The admixture was heated to 85 C, held at that temperature for 16 h, then cooled to 53 C. HPLC IPC showed compound 5 to be 0.05 A% and Impurity 4 to be 0.05 A%. The reaction was cooled to 21 C and ethyl acetate (19.5 L) and purified water (40.0 L) were added. The aqueous layer was removed and additional ethyl acetate (19.5 L) and purified water (20.0 L) were added to the reactor.
The second aqueous phase was removed. GC IPC showed DMF to be 0.7 wt% in the organic solution.
This solution was transferred, along with ethyl acetate rinse (1.0 L), from the 100 L reactor to a 50 L reactor. Distillation was carried out to minimum stir volume (9 L) and isopropanol (12 L) was charged to the reactor. Distillation was again carried out to minimum stir volume (9 L) and 2-propanol (30 L) was added. GC IPC showed ethyl acetate to be 0.06 wt%. The 2-propanol suspension (39 L) was then heated to 65 C, held at that temperature for 2 h, cooled to 5 C over 1 h, and the mixture was held for 2 h at reduced temperature. HPLC IPC

-85-indicated the product concentration in supernatant to be 14 mg/g. The mixture was filtered on an Aurora filter and the cake was washed with isopropanol (16 L). After no more filtrate could be collected from the filter, the cake was dried on the filter at 50 5 C (jacket temperature) under house vacuum with a nitrogen purge. HPLC IPC showed Impurity 3 to be < 1.0 A%. Drying was continued until GC IPC showed 2-propanol to be 0.91 wt%.
The process gave 4.27 kg compound 7 product (67% yield; 97.8 A% by HPLC) as a light yellow solid. NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6): 6 4.75-4.00 (m, 8H), 3.73-3.71 (m, 4H), 1.56 (s, 6H).

[225] In the second step, crude GDC-0084 was prepared from compound 7. A glass carboy was charged with K3P044120 (5.84 kg, 24.8 mol, 200 mol%) in purified water (8.45 L). The contents were stirred until homogeneous, and then sparged with N2 for?
1 h. A 100 L reactor was charged with the aqueous K3PO4 solution, compound 7 from the first step (4.10 kg, 12.7 mol, 100 mol%), pinocolboronate (3.36 kg, 15.2 mol, 120 mol%) NMR
(500 MHz, DMSO-d6): 6 8.38 (s, 2H), 7.02 (s, 2H), 1.27 (s, 12H). 13C NMR (125 MHz, DMSO-d6): 6 164.6, 163.9, 107.8, 83.4, 24.6), and THF (55.8 L). The contents were sparged with N2 for 45 min, and then PdC12dppf=CH2C12 catalyst (0.207 kg, 0.25 mol, 2 mol%) was charged.
The admixture was sparged with N2 for 10 min, heated to > 61 C, and held at that temperature for 4 h. HPLC IPC showed compound 7 to be 0.027 mg/mL. Purified water (45.8 L) was added and the reaction mixture was cooled to 7 C and held at that temperature for 1 h. The reaction mixture was filtered on an Aurora filter and the filter cake was washed with purified water (4 x 30.0 L). After no more filtrate could be collected from the filter, the filter cake was dried on the filter at 70 C (jacket temperature) under house vacuum with a N2 purge. Drying was continued for 8 h. HPLC IPC impurity 2 to be 0.4 A%. The contents of the Aurora filter (crude GDC-0084) were transferred to a 100 L reactor and combined with Si-Thiol (2.22 kg), Si-Thiourea (2.22 kg), acetic acid (17.5 L), toluene (7.5 L), and purified water (0.25 L) to form an admixture. The admixture was heated to 90 C and held at that temperature for 3 h. The admixture was transferred, along with acetic acid (7.5 L)/toluene (3.5 L) rinses (2x), to a Nutsche filter, and the hot filtrate (about 70 C) was passed through an in-line filter (polish filtration) directly into a 50 L reactor. Metal analysis IPC showed residual Pd to be < 3 ppm. Distillation was carried out to minimum stir volume (10 L), and then the contents were heated to 70 C. 2-Propanol (40.0 L) was charged to the reactor through an in-line filter (polish filtration) and the resulting suspension was heated to 70 C,

-86-held at that temperature for 1 h, cooled to 18 C over 4 h, and held for 9 h at reduced temperature. HPLC IPC indicated the GDC-0084 concentration in supernatant to be 1.5 mg/g. The mixture was filtered through a filter dryer and the filter cake was washed with isopropanol (48 L). After no more filtrate could be collected from the filter, the filter cake was dried in the filter dryer at 70 C (jacket temperature) under house vacuum with a N2 purge. GC IPC showed isopropanol to be 0.52 wt% and acetic acid to be 0.44 wt%. The process gave 3.87 kg GDC-0084 (80% yield in step 2; 99.4 A% by HPLC) as a light yellow solid. NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6): 6 9.09 (s, 2H), 7.03 (s, 2H), 4.32-4.17 (m, 4H), 4.17-4.04 (m, 4H), 3.84-3.65 (m, 4H), 1.58 (s, 6H). 13C NMR (125 MHz, DMSO-d6): 6 163.8, 157.6, 154.2, 152.5, 151.3, 151.0, 120.3, 117.3, 73.7, 66.2, 57.8, 45.2, 41.5, 27.3.
[226] The overall synthesis for the combination of steps 1 and 2 gave 3.87 kg (99.6% purity) of GDC-0084 at a yield of 55%. Measured impurities included Impurity 2 (0.08 A%) and Impurity 6 (0.24 A%) (depicted below); and the total unspecified impurities were <0.05 A%. The final solvent content was 1 wt.% including 0.57 wt% (i-PrOH) and 0.43 wt% HOAc, the final water content was 0.09 wt%, and the final residual Pd level was <3 ppm.
N.***NHAc Impurity-6 [227] Example 12: Preparation of 2-chloro-6,6-dimethy1-4-morpholino-8,9-dihydro-6H-P,41oxazino [3,4-e] purine [228] A process for the conversion of compound 5 to compound 7 was evaluated using a phase transfer catalyst. More particularly, preparation of compound 7 by condensation of compound 5 with 1,2-dibromoethane in toluene/alkaline water solvent systems in the presence of the phase transfer catalyst Aliquat 336 (a quaternary ammonium salt comprising a mixture of C8 and lesser amounts of Clo chains; 1-octanaminium, N-methyl-N,N-dioctyl chloride) was evaluated and about a 50% conversion to compound 7 was achieved.

-87-[229] Solvent screens were then done for the preparation of compound 7 by condensation of compound 5 with 1,2-dibromoethane in each of chlorobenzene, THF, Me-THF, DCM and DCE. No conversion was achieved in DCE, partial conversion was achieved in chlorobenzene, and the conversion was less than in toluene/alkaline water for the remainder of the solvents.
[230] Preparation of compound 7 by condensation of compound 5 with 1,2-dibromoethane in an alkaline water solvent in the absence of an organic solvent and in the presence of the phase transfer catalyst tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) was evaluated.
It was discovered that the condensation reaction went to completion in the aqueous solvent in the absence of an organic co-solvent. Base screening experiments were done with the bases KOH, NaOH, K2CO3 and NaHCO3 and it was found that each base showed similar reactivity and provided for complete conversion with a similar purity profile. KOH was selected for further evaluation due to the highest aqueous solubility.
[231] Reagent stoichiometry evaluations were done as summarized in Table 5 below for the conversion of one equivalent of compound 5 to compound 7 by condensation with 1,2-dibromoethane in an alkaline water solvent in the presence of TBAB phase transfer catalyst. In the reactions, 0.34 mmol of compound 5, KOH, TBAB and 1,2-dibromoethane were combined with 10 mL solvent at ambient temperature in vials and the reaction mixture was heated with vigorous stirring to 90 C and held for 17 hours. Conversion was measured by HPLC. In Table 5, "Exp" refers to experiment, "1,2-DBE" refers to 1,2-dibromoethane, "equiv" refers to equivalents, and "Cony. %" refers to % conversion of 2-(2-chloro-6-morpholino-9H-purin-8-y0propan-2-ol.
Table 5 Exp 1,2-DBE mol% KOH mol% TBAB mol% Cony. %

[232] The data show that complete conversion was achieved with equimolar amounts of 1,2-dibromoethane and KOH in combination with a catalytic amount of TBAB

-88-(0.3 equiv.). Optimization of the reagent stoichiometry helped to drive the reaction to completion. One set of optimized conditions was determined to be equivalent amounts of 1,2-dibromoethane and KOH (300 mol% each) and a catalytic amount of TBAB (30 mol%) in water at 90 C for 17 hours. It is believed that the use of excess base and 1,2-dibromoethane minimizes the competitive generation of vinyl bromide.
[233] Example 13: Reaction Temperature Studies [234] Reaction temperature evaluations were done as summarized in Table 6 below for the conversion of compound 5 (100 mol%) to compound 7 by condensation with 1,2-dibromoethane (400 mol%) in an alkaline water solvent (400 mol% KOH) in the presence of TBAB phase transfer catalyst (30 mol%) and at a 22 hour reaction time. The results are also reported in Table 6 below, where "Exp" refers to experiment, and "A%" refers to area percent 2-chloro-6,6-dimethy1-4-morpholino-8,9-dihy dro-6H- [1,4] oxazino [3,4-e]

to 50 C resulted in an improved impurity profile.
[236] Example 14: Crystallization Solvent Study [237] The phase transfer catalyst reactions of Examples 12 and 13 resulted in the compound 7 product separating from the aqueous layer as an oil containing significant concentrations of 1,2-dibromoethane. In those reactions, 2-propanol was added to facilitate product precipitation (crystallization). Seeding with 1% product seed crystals slightly improved crystallization but some oiling out of product was observed. It was discovered that replacement of i-propanol with ethanol allowed for an essentially clean isolation of the product as a solid from the product mixture, wherein a water to ethanol ratio of 1.3:1 provided the cleanest separation.
[238] Example 15: Reaction Conditions Study

-89-[239] Reaction conditions found in Examples 12 to 14 that provided for the high relative conversions were evaluated for the preparation of compound 7 by the reaction of compound 5 (480 g), 1,2-dibromoethane (300 mol%), KOH (300 mol%), TBAB (30 mol%) and H20 (5 vol), where the equivalent amounts of reactant are based on the equivalents of starting material. The reaction was run at 50 C for 12 hours, after which time Et0H (5.5 vol) was added to crystallize the product. Compound 7 was formed in 64% yield at 99.4 A%
purity by HPLC.
[240] Example 16: Pd Catalyst Study [241] Various catalysts comprising palladium were evaluated for the preparation of GDC-0084 from compound 7. For each experimental reaction, 3 mmol of compound 7 was admixed with THF (8 mL), water (1.2 mL), K3PO4 (6 mmol - 200 mol%) and pinacolboronate (4.0 mmol - 130 mol%). The reaction was run at 65 C for 5 hours. For product crystallization, water (7.1 mL) was added to the reaction product mixture at 50 C, cured for 1 hour at temperature, and cooled to 20 C. The reaction product was isolated by filtration and washed 3x with 1 vol. water per wash. The results are reported in Table 7 where "Exp" refers to experiment number; "Cat. Eq." refers to equivalents of catalyst; "Add Lig." Refers to additional ligand in mol%; "Lig. Eq." refers to equivalents of ligand; "Base Eq." refers to equivalents of base; and "Cony. %" refers to percent conversion of compound 7 as determined by HPLC.

6 PdXPhos 0.5 200 100%
7 PdXPhos 0.5 XPhos/0.6 0.6 200 32%
[242] PdXPhos was the most active catalyst, providing for complete conversion, and the catalytic activity was preserved at a concentration of 0.5 mol% (0.5 mol%) even in the absence of added ligand (experiment 6). Reduction of PdXPhos catalyst loading to 0.3 mol%

-90-(0.3 mol%) reduced conversion. The Pd(amphos)Ci2 (Experiment 2) and PdC12(t-Bu2PhP)2 catalysts were inactive at the evaluated concentrations.
[243] Example 17: Catalyst Optimization Study [244] The reaction conditions found in Example 16 to provide for the highest conversion were evaluated for the preparation of GDC-0084 from a reaction mixture comprising compound 7 (78 g) starting material, pinocolboronate (120 mol%), THF (8 vol), H20 (1.2 vol), PdXphos (0.5 mol%), and K3PO4 (200 mol%). The reaction was run at 65 C
for 4 hours. The reaction mixture was purified by the Si-thiol purification method of Example 6, but using only 10 g Si-thiol. The Si-Thiourea purification step of Example 6 was not done in this Example. GDC-0084 was formed in 94% yield at 99.3 A% purity by HPLC, wherein the residual Pd was 815 ppm.
[245] As compared to Example 6, this example replaced the PdC12dppf.CH2C12 catalyst with the more reactive PdXPhos catalyst, reduced palladium loading from 2 mol% (2 mol%) to 0.5 mol% (0.5 mol%), eliminated the Si-Thiourea scavenger, and reduced overall scavenger loading by about 90%, and reduced total solvent by 71%, while providing for comparable yield and purity.
[246] Example 18: Purification by Crystallization [247] Purification of crude GDC-0084 by crystallization may suitably be done by crystallization from an acetic acid-water solvent. However, GDC-0084 may react with acetic acid to form acetamide impurity 6.
[248] In a first evaluation, the formation of impurity 6 in solution with of GDC-0084 (2.6 mmol), acetic acid (3.6 mL), toluene (1.6 mL) and a trace amount of water (0.01 mL) at 90 C over time was evaluated. The results are reported in Table 8 below where "%
Acet." refers to percent acetamide.

-91-[249] In a second evaluation, toluene was removed and the formation of impurity 6 of GDC-0084 in solution with 11 volumes of acetic acid and water at 70 C over time was evaluated. Four ratios of acetic acid to water were evaluated including 98:2, 9:1, 4:1 and 1:1.
The results are depicted in Figure 1 and indicate that as the amount of water increases, the amount of acetamide (impurity 6) formed after 6 hours was reduced 6-fold from 0.6 area%
(by HPLC) to 0.1 area%. The results further indicate that the acetamide impurity was less than 0.15 A% for ratios of acetic acid to water of less than 4:1 at 70 C.
[250] Further development indicated that GDC-0084 fully dissolved in 10 vol of acetic acid:water (3:1) at 90 C and crystallized out at 60 C. The 30 C
temperature width of the metastable zone was deemed to be sufficient to perform polish filtration at 90 C. Based on a Pd loading reduction of from 2 to 0.5 mol%, it was found that treatment with only 10 wt% of Si-Thiol was sufficient to reduce residual Pd to below 10 ppm.
[251] Under conditions derived in Examples 12 to 18 for preparing GDC-0084 from compound 5 including (i) annulation of compound 5 with 1,2-dibromoethane using a phase transfer catalyst in water to generate compound 7, (ii) Suzuki cross-coupling with pinocolboronate using 0.5 mol% of XPhos Pd G2 catalyst, to provide crude GDC-0084; and (iii) a final scavenging/recrystallization from acetic acid/water provided GDC-0084 in 52%
yield with 99.7 area% purity and in polymorphic form. The acetamide impurity 6 was reduced from 0.25 area% to less than 0.05 area% (HPLC) by adjusting the crystallization solvent composition.
[252] Under conditions derived in Examples 12 to 18 for preparing GDC-0084 from compound 5, as compared to the preparation of GDC-0084 from compound 5 according to Examples 5 and 6: (i) in stage 1 (preparation of compound 7 from compound 5), both DMF
and Et0Ac were eliminated from the process, the total solvent volume was reduced by 54%, and all extractions and solvent exchanges were eliminated; (ii) in stage 2 (reparation of crude GDC-0084 from compound 7), the total solvent volume was reduced from 58 to 17 vol (71%
reduction); and (iii) in stage 3 (crude GDC-0084 purification process), toluene was eliminated and the total solvent volume for recrystallization was lowered from 33 to 21 vol (37% reduction). Overall, the total unit operations were reduced from 21 to 7, the total solvent volume for the three stages was reduced by 64%, toluene and DMF were eliminated.
As a result, the process mass intensity (PMI ¨ see Concepcion, J., et al., "Using the Right Green Yardstick: Why Process Mass Intensity is Used in the Pharmaceutical Industry to Drive More Sustainable Processes", Org. Process Res. Dev., 2011, 912-917) was reduced

-92-from 140 to 70, which is in the practical range for a commercial process (see Henderson, R.K., et al., "Lessons Learned through Measuring Green Chemistry Performance:

[255] In the first step, a 100L reactor was charged with water (45.1 kg, 4.8 volumes), potassium hydroxide (5.4 kg, 96.2 mol, 304 mol%), compound 5 (9.40 kg, 31.6 mol, 100 mol%), tetrabutylammonium bromide (2.92 kg, 9.06 mol, 28.7 mol%) and 1,2-dibromoethane (17.7 kg, 94.2 mol, 298 mol%). The mixture was heated to 47 C
and held at that temperature for 20 h. HPLC IPC showed compound 5 to be 3.1 A%. Ethanol (46.2 kg, 6.2 vol) and compound 7 seed crystals (96.6 g, 1 wt%) in ethanol (0.60 kg, 0.06 volumes) were added. The contents of the reactor were held for 2 h, then cooled to 5 C
over 2 h and held for 1 h. The mixture was filtered through a filter dryer and washed with water (27.4 kg, 2.9 volumes). After no more filtrate could be collected from the filter, the filter cake was dried on the filter at 60 C (jacket temperature) under house vacuum with a nitrogen purge.
The process gave 6.85 kg compound 7 (6.85 kg, 67% yield; 98.5 A% by HPLC) as a light yellow solid. Impurities were detected at low levels as follows: Compound 5 (0.43 A%);

[256] In the second step, a 100L reactor was charged with water (8.00 kg, 1.2 volumes), THF (39.2 kg, 6.5 volumes), potassium phosphate tribasic monohydrate (9.51 kg, 40.4 mol, 194 mol%), compound 7 (6.75 kg, 20.85 mol, 100 mol%) and pinacolboronate (5.50 kg, 24.88 mol, 119 mol%) to form an admixture. The admixture was cycled from vacuum to nitrogen three times, and then Xphos Pd G2 (82.0 g, 0.104 mol, 0.5 mol%) was charged. The admixture was cycled from vacuum to nitrogen three times, heated to > 67 C, and held at that temperature for 5 h. HPLC IPC analysis indicated complete conversion.
Purified water (48.1 kg, 7.1 volumes) was charged and held for 1 h at 50 C.
The reaction was cooled to 20 C over 2 h, held for more than 2 h at 20, cooled to 5 C, and held at that temperature for 2 h. The admixture was filtered on a filter dryer and the filter cake was washed with water (37.1 kg, 5.5 volumes). After no more filtrate could be collected from the filter, the cake was dried on the filter at 60 C (jacket temperature) under house vacuum with a nitrogen purge. Crude GDC-0084 was obtained as an off-white solid (7.49 kg,

94% yield;
99.4 A% by HPLC).
[257] In the third step, a 100L reactor was charged with water (7.75 kg, 1 volume), acetic acid (60.8 kg, 7.5 volumes), crude GDC-0084 (7.70 kg, 20.13 mol, 100 mol%) and silica-thiol (770 g, 10 wt%) to form and admixture. The admixture was heated to 90 C and then held at that temperature for 3 h. The contents were filtered through an Aurora filter and then through a 1 p.m polish filter, and the filter was rinsed with hot acetic acid (7.10 kg, 0.9 volumes). The resulting solution was then cooled to 77 C and GDC-0084 seed crystals (82 g, 1.1 wt%) were added as a slurry in acetic acid (69 g) and water (87 g). The contents were held forl h at 68 C. Purified water (12.0 kg, 1.6 volumes) was charged to the slurry and the slurry was cooled to 45 C, held at 45 C for 1 h, cooled to 20 C over 2 h, held at 20 C for 6 h, cooled to 5 C over 2 h and held at 5 C for 2 h. The slurry was filtered on a filter dryer and the filter cake was washed with water (69.9 kg, 9.1 volumes). After no more filtrate could be collected from the filter, the filter cake was dried on the filter at 60 C (jacket temperature) under house vacuum with a nitrogen purge. GDE-0084 was obtained as an off-white solid (6.41 kg, 83% yield, 99.7 A%). Melting point 211 C; NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6) ö 9.09 (s, 2H), 7.03 (s, 2H), 4.32-4.17 (m, 4H), 4.17-4.04 (m, 4H), 3.84-3.65 (m, 4H), 1.58 (s, 6H); 13C NMR (125 MHz, DMSO-d6) ö 163.8, 157.6, 154.2, 152.5, 151.3, 151.0, 120.3, 117.3, 73.7, 66.2, 57.8, 45.2, 41.5, 27.3. HRMS [M+H1+ calcd for 383.1938; found 383.1945. The residual Pd level was below 10 ppm.
[258] As compared to the scavenging method of Example 6, the THF was eliminated from the solvent system, the Si-Thiourea scavenging step was eliminated and the Si-thiol scavenger loading was reduced by 90%.
[259] Example 20: 5-(6,6-dimethy1-4-morpholino-8,9-dihydro-6h41,41oxazino[3,4-e] purin-2-yl)pyrimidin-2-amine Blood-Brain Barrier Penetration Determination [260] The capability of GDC-0084 (compound Mat) to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in mice was determined by evaluating the unbound brain-to-unbound plasma concentration (Bu/Pu) ratio in female CD-1 mice. The capability of compound That to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in rats was determined by evaluating the concentration of compound That in the cerebrospinal fluid of male Sprague-Dawley rats. The results are presented below in Table 9.
[261] For the mouse study, [BrainnPlasma] ratios were determined after an oral dose of 25 mg/kg of compound That as a MCT suspension to female CD-1 mice. MCT
refers to the indicated drug dose in 0.5% methylcellulose and 0.2% Tween 80. [Brain]u and [Plasma]u refer to the unbound concentration measured in the brain and plasma respectively.
The [BrainnPlasma] ratios are the mean values from 3 animals per time point determined at both 1 hour and 6 hours after administration. The data show that the Bu/Pu ratio was 0.41 at both 1 and 6 h thereby demonstrating that compound That is capable of substantial free brain penetration. For the male Sprague-Dawley rat study, the concentration of compound That in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was determined and the [BrainnPlasma] ratio was evaluated after administration of an oral dose of 15 mg/kg of compound That as a MCT
suspension.
[BrainnPlasma] and determined for 1 animal at each of 0.25 and 2 h and 3 at 8 hours and the data was reported are the range across the three timepoints (average of the 3 animals at 8h).
[262] The extent of protein binding was determined in vitro, in mouse plasma (Bioreclamation, Inc., Hicksville, NY) by equilibrium dialysis using a HTDialysis 96-well block (HTDialysis LLC; Gales Ferry, CT). The compound was added to pooled plasma from multiple animals (n > 3) at a total concentration of 10 M. Plasma samples were equilibrated with phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4) at 37 C in 90% humidity and 5% CO2 for 4 hours. Following dialysis, concentration of compounds in plasma and buffer were

-95-measured by LC-MS/MS. The percent unbound in plasma was determined by dividing the concentration measured in the post-dialysis buffer by that measured in the post-dialysis plasma and multiplying by 100. Incubations were performed in triplicate and coefficient of variation is not greater than 30%.
[263] The free fraction in mouse brain was determined as described by Kalvass.

Briefly, brain tissue was homogenized in 3 volumes of phosphate-buffered saline and compound was added at a final concentration of 10 M. Aliquots of 300 pl were dialyzed in a RED device (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL) against a volume of 500 pl buffer for 4 h at 37 C in an incubator at 90% humidity and 5% CO2.. Following dialysis, tissues and buffer samples were analyzed as described for the plasma protein binding studies.
[264] Twelve female CD-1 mice (Charles River Laboratories, Hollister, CA) were given an oral (PO) dose of the indicated compound in 0.5% methylcellulose/0.2%
Tween 80 (MCT). Two blood samples of approximately 0.15 mL were collected from each mouse (n=3 mice per timepoint) by retro-orbital bleed or terminal cardiac puncture while the animals were anesthetized with isoflurane. Blood samples were collected in tubes containing K2EDTA as the anticoagulant, predose and at 0.083, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 3, 6, 9, and 24 h post-dose.
Samples were centrifuged within 1 h of collection and plasma was collected and stored at -80 C until analysis. Total concentrations of the compound were determined by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), following plasma protein precipitation with acetonitrile, and injection of the supernatant onto the column, a Varian MetaSil AQ C18 column (50 x 2 mm, 5 pm particle size). A CTC HTS PAL
autosampler (LEAP Technologies, Chapel Hill, NC) linked to a Shimadzu SCL-10A controller with LC-10AD pumps (Shimadzu, Columbia MD), coupled with an AB Sciex API 4000 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (AB Sciex, Foster City, CA) were used for the LC-MS/MS
assay. The aqueous mobile phase was water with 0.1% formic acid and the organic mobile phase was acetonitrile with 0.1% formic acid. The lower and upper limits of quantitation of the assay were 0.005 M and 10 M, respectively. The total run time was 1.5 min and the ionization was conducted in the positive ion mode. Where brain concentration was determined, brains were collected at 1 and 6 h post-dose from 3 different animals at each time point, rinsed with ice-cold saline, weighed and stored at -80 C until analysis. For compound quantitation, mouse brains were homogenized in 3 volumes of water. The homogenates were extracted by protein precipitation with acetonitrile. LC-MS/MS analysis was conducted as

-96-described for the plasma. Brain homogenate concentrations were converted to brain concentrations for the calculations of brain-to-plasma ratios.
[265] The results are shown in Table 9 and the total brain-to-plasma ratio was 1.4 for mice and 1.9-3.3 for rats. The [Brain],"[Plasmalu for mice was 0.41 and the [CSFV[Plasmalu for rats was 0.73-1Ø Although brain protein binding was not measured for rats, the CSF concentration has been established as a surrogate for unbound brain concentration. See Liu, X., et al., Unbound Drug Concentration in Brain Homogenate and Cerebral Spinal Fluid at Steady State as a Surrogate for Unbound Concentration in Brain Interstitial Fluid, Drug Metab. Dispos. 2009, 37, 787-793. The [CSFV[plasmalu concentration ratio was 0.73-1.0, indicating that compound That effectively crosses the BBB
in rats.

is critical for proliferation and antiapoptotic signaling pathways, and increased activation of AKT by phosphorylation has been found to be involved in a variety of neoplasia. In the evaluation, female CD-1 mice were administered a single PO dose of the indicated compound. Brains and plasma were collected at the indicated time post-dose, from 3 animals at each time point. Individual brains were split in half for PD analysis and compound concentration measurement. The samples were stored at -70 C and analyzed for total concentration. For PD analysis, cell extraction buffer (Invitrogen, Camarillo, CA) containing mM Tris pH 7.4, 100 mM NaC1, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM EGTA, 1 mM NaF, 20 mM
Na4P207, 2 mM Na3VO4, 1% Triton X-100, 10% glycerol, 0.1% SDS, and 0.5%
deoxycholate was supplemented with phosphatase, protease inhibitors (Sigma, St. Louis, MO) and 1mM PMSF and added to frozen brain biopsies. Brains were homogenized with a small pestle (Konte Glass Company, Vineland, NJ), sonicated briefly on ice, and centrifuged at 20,000 g for 20 min at 4 C. Protein concentration was determined using BCA
protein assay (Pierce, Rockford, IL). Proteins were separated by electrophoresis and transferred to NuPage nitrocellulose membranes (Invitrogen, Camarillo, CA). Licor Odyssey Infrared detection

-97-system (Licor, Lincoln, NE) was used to assess and quantify protein expression. PI3K
pathway markers were evaluated by immunoblotting using antibodies against pAktser473 and total Akt (Invitrogen, Camarillo, CA and Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA).
Inhibition of pAkt (%) was calculated by comparing pAkt signal with that measured in untreated mice.
[267] The results are shown in Figure 2 for a 3 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg dose of compound That administered orally where pAKT in normal mouse brain tissue was measured and determined to be inhibited at 1 h post-dose. At 4 hours post-dose, the 3 mg/kg dose no longer resulted in inhibition of pAKT, in contrast to the 10 mg/kg dose. The results demonstrate that compound That engages its target behind a fully intact BBB, therefore freely penetrating mouse brain.
[268] Example 21: Efficacy evaluation of 5-(6,6-dimethy1-4-morpholino-8,9-dihydro-6H-[1,4] oxazino [3,4-e] purin-2-yOpy rimi din-2-amine (GDC-0084) against glioblastoma [269] The in vivo efficacy of compound GDC-0084 (compound That) versus U87 MG Merchant (MG/M) human glioblastoma xenografts was evaluated in dose escalation studies in subcutaneous tumor-bearing Taconic female NCR nude mice.
[270] All in vivo studies were conducted in compliance with Genentech's Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. PTEN-null U-87 MG/M human glioblastoma cancer cells (an in-house derivative of U-87 MG cells from American Type Culture Collection (Manassas, VA)) were cultured in RPMI 1640 media plus 1% L-glutamine with 10% fetal bovine serum (HyClone; Waltham, MA). Cells in log-phase growth were harvested and resuspended in HBSS:Matrigel (BD Biosciences; Franklin Lakes, NJ) (1:1, v:v) for injection into female NCr nude mice (Taconic Farms, Cambridge City, IN) aged 20 weeks. Animals received five million cells subcutaneously in the right lateral thorax in 0.1 mL. Mice bearing established tumors in the range of 200-500 mm3 were separated into groups of equally sized tumors (n = 6-7/group) to receive escalating doses of 16. The inhibitor was formulated once weekly in 0.5% methylcellulose and 0.2% Tween-80 at concentrations needed for target doses in a volume of 0.2 mL. All formulations were stored in a refrigerator and brought to room temperature and mixed well by vortex before oral administration by gavage once daily for 23 days. Tumor volumes were calculated from perpendicular length and width caliper measurements using the formula: Tumor Volume

-98-(mm3) = 0.5 X (Length X Width2). Changes in body weights are reported as a percentage change from the starting weight.
[271] A mixed modeling approach was used to analyze the repeated measurement of tumor volumes from the same animals over time since this approach addresses both repeated measurements as well as modest dropouts before study end (Pinheiro et al.
2008).
Log2(tumor volume) growth traces were fitted to each dose group with restricted cubic splines for the dose and fixed time effects. Fitting was done via a linear mixed-effects model, using the R package nlme (version 3.1-97) in R version 2.13.0 (R Development Core Team 2008; R Foundation for Statistical Computing; Vienna, Austria). Fitted tumor volumes were plotted in the natural scale in Prism (version 5.0b for Mac) (GraphPad Software; La Jolla, CA). Linear mixed-effects analysis was also employed using R to analyze the repeated measurement of body weight changes from the same animals over time.
[272] Mice bearing the tumor xenographs were dosed at 0 time, 2 days, 4 days, days, 9 days, 11 days 13 days, 16 days, 19 days and 22 days at a compound That dosage rate of 0.45 mg/kg, 2.2 mg/kg, 4.5 mg/kg, 8.9 mg/kg, 13.4 mg/kg or 17.9 mg/kg where compound That was a suspension in vehicle (0.5% methylcellulose/0.2% Tween-80). The mice control group was administered the vehicle in the absence of the drug once at the same dosage schedule. Changes in tumor volumes over time by dose for each compound are depicted in Figure 3 as cubic spline fits generated via Linear Mixed Effects analysis of log-transformed volumes.
[273] Compound That achieved significant and dose-dependent tumor growth inhibition. Tumor growth inhibition was first observed at a 2.2 mg/kg dose level. Higher doses led to greater tumor growth inhibition, including tumor regressions at the 17.9 mg/kg dose level. Each of these doses was well tolerated for the duration of the study. Compound That was found to have an anti-proliferation EC50 of 740 nM in U87 cells.
[274] Example 22: Efficacy Evaluation of 5-(6,6-dimethy1-4-morpholino-8,9-dihydro-6H-[1,41oxazino [3,4-e] purin-2-y 1)pyrimi din-2-amine on pAKT
[275] The effect of compound That on the pharmacodynamics (PD) marker pAKT
in the U87 MG/M human glioblastoma xenograft model after 24 days of continuous dosing at dosage rates of 0.5 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg and 18 mg/kg was evaluated.
Tumors were excised from animals 1 hour and 4 hours after the last administered dose on day 24 and processed for analysis of pAKT and total AKT. The results are reported in Figure 4 as a ratio

-99-of pAKT to total AKT wherein indicated values are the means for groups of 3 animals and error bars indicate standard error of the mean. Levels of pAKTser473 and total AKT were measured by electrochemiluminescence using Meso Scale Discovery according to manufacturer's instructions (Gaithersburg, MD).
[276] Compound That was found to have a significant PD effect in the U87 tumors.
Dose and concentration dependent inhibition of pAKT was observed at both 1 hour and 4 hours post dose, indicating that tumor growth inhibition is the result of on-target inhibition.

-102-[281] The hepatocyte stability of compound That was evaluated across preclinical species. Certain in vivo pharmacokinetic parameters were also evaluated. In the example, hepatic clearance was predicted from hepatocyte incubations using the in vitro ti/2 method disclosed by Obach, R. S., et al., The prediction of humanpharmacokinetic parameters from preclinical and in vitro metabolism data, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. 1997, 283, 46-58. Male Sprague-Dawley rats, female CD-1 mice, male cynomolgus monkeys and beagle dogs were dosed intravenously with 1 mg/kg of compound That prepared in 60% PEG400/10%
Ethanol.
Compound That was administered orally (PO) at the indicated dose in 0.5%
methylcellulose with 0.2% Tween 80 (MCT). The results are reported in Table 12 below where "Cyno"

[283] Example 25: Human Phase I Trial [284] An open-label, multicenter, Phase I, dose-escalation study was done using a standard "3 + 3" design to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of GDC-0084 (compound Formula That). GDC-0084 is a potent, oral, selective small molecule inhibitor of class I PI3K and mTOR kinase with a mean apparent inhibition constant (Ki) for p110a/p85a, p1100/p85 a, p1106/p85 a, and pl lOy of 2.2, 41, 2.7, and 9.7 nM, respectively.

-103-[285] GDC-0084 was administered orally once daily in continuous dosing cycles of 28 days to a set of forty-seven patients with progressive or recurrent high-grade gliomas (WHO Grade III-IV) who had progressed during or after treatment with at least one prior radiotherapy-containing regimen for gliomas and/or were not candidates for regimens known to provide clinical benefit. GDC-0084 was provided in capsule formulations in three strengths: 1 mg, 5 mg, and 25 mg. GDC-0084 capsules were stored at room temperature (59 F-86 F [15 C and30 C]). Plasma samples for pharmacokinetic ("PK") analysis were collected on day 1 and day 8 or day 15 of cycle 1. Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography ("FDG-PET") was performed at baseline and on-treatment.
[286] The median time from primary diagnosis was 40.5 months (range: 11 ¨ 190 months). At study enrollment, 33 patients (70.2%) were classified with WHO
Grade IV
glioma and 14 patients (29.8%) were classified with WHO Grade III glioma. Of the patients, 55.3% of patients had progressive disease, 40.4% had stable disease, one patient was not evaluable, and the data for one patient was missing. Overall, all patients had received prior cancer surgery, radiotherapy, and systemic therapies. The median number of prior cancer surgeries was 2.0 (range: 1 to 6), the median number of prior radiotherapies was 1.0 (range: 1 to 2), and the median number of prior systemic therapies was 3.0 (range: 1 to 5).
[287] Patients received GDC-0084 daily in cycles of 28 days in length (4 weeks of daily dosing). On Day 1 of Cycle 1, GDC-0084 was administered in a clinical setting that accommodated frequent blood draws over a period of up to 24 hours after the morning dose was administered. Patients took GDC-0084 at the same time of day ( 2 hours) when the study drug was taken at home. Dosing times may have been adjusted to accommodate for time shifts from the home administration schedule (e.g., for clinic visits with PK sampling or traveling), but times were to be adjusted by no more than 4 hours at a time.
[288] GDC-0084 was taken on an empty stomach (i.e., approximately 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal) unless the patient was otherwise instructed, except on days when administration was under fasted conditions (e.g., with extensive PK sampling during Cycle 1, as described elsewhere herein). For administration under fasted conditions, patients fasted overnight for at least 8 hours before dosing and 2 hours after dosing. GDC-0084 capsules were swallowed whole (not chewed) with 240 mL (8 oz) of water.
[289] Dose escalation continued in accordance with the dose-escalation rules until the maximum tolerable dose ("MTD") was exceeded, excessive pill burden (defined as 2 or

-104-more patients in a cohort who were unable to take? 90% of doses consisting of a minimum of eight capsules) was declared, or analysis of available PK data indicated that exposure was unlikely to increase with further increases in the dose of GDC-0084.
[290] In PK evaluations, the patients were treated with GDC-0084 in eight dose groups on a 28-day (once daily) cycle at the following dose levels: Cohort 1 (2 mg); Cohort 2 (4 mg); Cohort 3 (8 mg); Cohort 4 (15 mg); Cohort 5 (20 mg); Cohort 6 (30 mg);
Cohort 7 (45 mg); and Cohort 8 (65 mg). PK evaluations were conducted following GDC-administration in a fasted state on Study Days 1 and 8 (for Cohorts 7-8) or 15 (for Cohorts 1-6). A single dose of GDC-0084 was administered orally on Day 1 of Cycle 1, followed by frequent blood sampling, up to 72 hours for Cohorts 1-6 and 24 hours for Cohorts 7-8, to determine the single-dose PK properties of GDC-0084. For Cohorts 1-6 (2-30mg), the single dose on Cycle 1, Day 1 was followed by a 7 day washout-period, after which continuous once daily dosing, for 28 consecutive days, was started on Day 8. Blood samples for Cohorts 1-6 were collected on Day 15 for PK analysis. For Cohorts 7 and 8 (45-65mg), subjects were dosed continuously once daily for 28 days starting on Cycle 1, Day 1 and blood samples were collected on Day 8 for multiple dose PK analysis. A validated LC-MS/MS assay with a lower level of quantification (LLOQ) of 0.00052 tM was used to quantify the concentration of GDC-0084 in plasma samples.
[291] Plasma concentration-time data for GDC-0084 were tabulated, and descriptive statistics were computed and compared between cohorts. Mean plasma GDC-0084 concentration data were plotted by cohort relative to nominal time. All plasma concentration-time data collected in Cycle 1 were analyzed using WinNonlin0 (Version 6.4, Pharsight Corp, Mountain View, CA) to estimate PK parameters, which included but were not limited to AUCo-iast (where AUC refers to the area under the concentration-time curve) and/or AUCmf, Cmax, Cmin, tmax, half-life, CL/F, and accumulation ratio. Estimates for each PK
parameter and summary statistics (mean, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, median, minimum, and maximum) were tabulated by dose level and schedule. Nominal time data were used in the analysis, and the linear up/log down trapezoidal method was used for calculating AUC.
[292] The pharmacokinetic parameters of GDC-0084 following single and multiple doses are tabulated in Table 13 and Table 14, respectively, where SD refers to standard deviation; % CV refers to the coefficient of variation; ND refers to not determined; T112 refers to terminal half-life; Tmax refers to time to maximum plasma concentration;
Cmax refers to

-105-maximum observed plasma concentration; AUCinf refers to area under the concentration-time curve from Time 0 to infinity; CL/F refers to apparent oral clearance; AUC0_24 refers to refers to area under the concentration-time curve from Time 0 to 24 hours; Cmin refers to minimum concentration; and Accumulation Ratio refers to AUC0_24hr multiple dose/AUCO-24 hr single dose.

Following a single oral dose, GDC-0084 was rapidly absorbed with a median Tmax of approximately 2 hours (range 1 to 8 hours). After reaching peak plasma concentrations, concentrations decreased with an apparent terminal phase tv2 of approximately 18.73 hours (range 3.41 to 47.3 hours; calculated across Cohorts 1-6 (2 to 30 mg) following a single dose).

Figure 16 is a dose proportionality plot of dose (mg) versus AUC24 ( M*hr) for single dose ("SD") and multiple dose ("MD") regimens. The data indicate that the accumulation ratio (AUC0-24 hr multiple dose/AUCO-24 hr single dose) ranged from 0.577 to 4.84 with a mean value of 2.12 0.896.
Both Cmax and AUC0_24 for Cycle 1, Day 1 appeared to increase in a dose-proportional and dose linear fashion across all cohorts for both single and multiple doses.

[297] Overall, the concentration from brain tumor tissue suggests that GDC-crosses the blood brain barrier and uniformly distributes throughout the brain. The experimental results indicate that GDC-0084 inhibited human mTOR, with a mean apparent Ki of 70 nM. GDC-0084 is rapidly absorbed and demonstrates linear and dose proportional increases in exposure, with a half-life (t112 of about 19 hours) supportive of once daily dosing.
The MTD was determined to be 45 mg when GDC-0084 was administered orally once daily in cycles of 28 days. At a dose of 45 mg, steady-state concentrations were consistent with antitumor activity observed in xenograft models. Of the patients who underwent FDG-PET
imaging, 7 of 27 patients had metabolic partial response according to pre-defined criteria. Of the 34 patients with exploratory MRI results, none of the MRI derived metrics (Ktrans, Cerebral blood volume, apparent diffusion coefficient) showed any significant trend with drug plasma exposure. GDC-0084 was rapidly absorbed with a median Tmax of approximately 2 hours following a single dose. The accumulation ratio had a mean value of 2.1 0.90, and the extent of accumulation was consistent with the theoretical accumulation based upon half-life estimates and the daily dosing interval. GDC-0084 displayed an approximately linear and dose proportional increase in Cmax and AUC0_24 following single and multiple doses across all cohorts (2 mg to 65 mg once daily).

-108-[298] Tumor response was determined by either an assessment of FDG-PET or by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO).
[299] FDG-PET assessments were used to evaluate the inhibition of glucose uptake and will be used as a surrogate assay to address if GDC-0084 is able to exert biological effects in tumor tissue. The outcome measure for this objective was based on the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) of up to five lesions. The tumor regions of interest (ROIs) were identified for each patient on pretreatment PET imaging and corresponded to a subset of the target lesions used for analysis of the patient's pretreatment tumor assessment scans.
Determination of PET response was done according to the modified European Organization for Research on the Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) definitions (Young H, Baum R, Cremerius H, et al., "Measurement of clinical and subclinical tumour response using [18F1-fluorodeoxyglucose and positron emission tomograph: review and 1999 EORTC
recommendations", European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) PET Study Group. Eur J Cancer 1999;35:1773-82). Specifically, the SUVmax of each ROT on the on-treatment scans was compared with its SUVmax on the corresponding pretreatment scan and the percent change was determined. In the event of more than one ROT, the overall percent change in SUVmax was the arithmetic mean of the percent changes in SUVmax for each of the ROIs (mSUVmax). PET response is defined as follows. Progressive disease (PET-PD):
percent increase of > 20% in mSUVmax or the development of a new lesion with an SUVmax above background and not explained by another cause (e.g., infection). Stable disease (PET-SD): percent increase of < 20% in mSUVmax or a percent decrease of < 20% in mSUVmax.
Partial response (PET-PR): percent decrease of > 20% in mSUVmax. Complete response (PET-CR): SUVmax indistinguishable from background in all ROIs (i.e., complete disappearance of all PET lesions).
[300] Tumor response under the RANO guidelines was done generally in accordance with the Wen method (Wen PY, Macdonald DR, Reardon DA, et al.
"Updated response assessment criteria for high-grade gliomas: Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Working Group", J Clin Oncol 2010;28:1963-72) where the disease is categorized as "complete response", "partial response", "stable disease" and "progression". Among other factors, a complete response required all of the following: complete disappearance of all enhancing measurable and non-measurable disease sustained for at least 4 weeks; no new lesions; and stable or improved non-enhancing (T2/FLAIR) lesions. A partial response required, among other factors, > 50% decrease, compared with baseline, in the sum of the

-109-products of the perpendicular diameters of all measurable enhancing lesions (such as measured by MRI) sustained for at least 4 weeks; no progression of non-measurable disease;
and no new lesions. Stable disease occurred if the patient did not qualify for complete response, partial response, or progression. Progression was defined by any of the following:
> 25% increase in the sum of the products of the perpendicular diameters of all enhancing lesions (compared with the smallest tumor measurement either at baseline [pretreatment] or after initiation of therapy [i.e., compared with baseline if no decrease]) on stable or increasing doses of corticosteroids; a significant increase in T2/FLAIR nonenhancing lesions on stable or increasing doses of corticosteroids compared with baseline scan or best response after initiation of therapy, not due to co-morbid events; the appearance of any new lesions; clear progression of non-measurable lesions; or definite clinical deterioration not attributable to other causes apart from the tumor, or to a decrease in corticosteroid dose.
[301] Some patients underwent, FDG-PET and additional exploratory MRI
assessments to investigate potential pharmacodynamic effects of GDC-0084.
Reduction in 18F-FDG uptake measured by PET is indicative of reduced glucose metabolism activity, a likely PD response of PI3K pathway inhibition. A total of 27 patients underwent FDG-PET
imaging at baseline, cycle 2 day 1 and, for those enrolled on the 45 mg and 65 mg dose levels, also at cycle 1 day 8. On the basis of FDG-PET, five of the 27 patients (18.5%) had metabolic partial response according to pre-defined criteria. At GDC-0084 doses of at least 45 mg per day, a trend towards decreased median survival in normal brain tissue was observed suggesting central nervous system penetration of GDC-0084. GDC-0084 was detected at similar levels in brain tumor and brain tissue, with a brain tissue/tumor to plasma ratio of greater than 1 and greater than 0.5 for total drug and free drug, respectively. Of the evaluable patients, 26 patients (55.3%) had a best overall response of progressive disease, and 19 patients (40.4%) had stable disease. FDG-PET and concentration data from brain tumor tissue suggest that GDC-0084 crosses the blood-brain barrier, with a uniform distribution throughout the brain.
[302] Thirty-four patients were evaluated by exploratory magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI"). Dynamic contrast enhanced (DCE) MRI data showed that in four patients with highest drug exposure (AUCo-24hr>8uMhr) a decrease in tumor Ktrans, a measure of tumor permeability, reflecting tumor angiogenesis, was observed. The Ktrans changes were within the likely noise range of the measurement (based on variability in low-exposure

-110-cohorts). Overall, none of the MRI derived metrics (Ktrans, Cerebral blood volume, apparent diffusion coefficient) showed any significant trend with drug plasma exposure.
[303] Example 26: Transport Assays in Cell Monolayers [304] Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells expressing human P-gp, human BCRP or mouse Bcrpl and LLC-PK1 cells transfected with mouse P-gp (mdrla) were used to determine whether GDC-0084 was a substrate of these transporters. MDR1-MDCKI cells were licensed from the NCI (National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, MD) and Bcrpl-MDCKII, BCRP-MDCKII and Mdrla-LLC-PK1 cells were obtained from the Netherlands Cancer Institute (Amsterdam, The Netherlands). For transport studies, cells were seeded on 24-well Millicell plates (Millipore, Billerca, MA) 4 days prior to use (polyethylene terephtalate membrane, 1 p.m pore size) at a seeding density of 2.5x105 cells/mL (except for MDR1-MDCKI, 1.3x105 cells/mL). GDC-0084 was tested at 5 p.M in the apical to basolateral (A-B) and basolateral to apical (B-A) directions. The compound was dissolved in transport buffer consisting of Hank's balanced salt solution (HBSS) with 10 mM HEPES
(Invitrogen Corporation, Grand Island, NY). Lucifer Yellow (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) was used as the paracellular and monolayer integrity marker. GDC-0084 concentrations in the donor and receiving compartments were determined by LC- MS/MS analysis. The apparent permeability (Papp), in the apical to A-B and B-A directions, was calculated after a 2-hour incubation as:
Papp = (dQ/dt).(1/ACO) Where: dQ/dt = rate of compound appearance in the receiver compartment; A =
Surface area of the insert; CO= Initial substrate concentration at TO. The efflux ratio (ER) was calculated as (Papp, B-A/Papp, A-B).
[305] The results are presented in Table 15 below.
[306] Table 15: Apparent Permeability (Papp) of GDC-0084 in Transfected Cell Cell Line Papp (10-6 cm/s) Papp Ratio AtoB BtoA
MDR1-MDCKI 13.5 0.9 11.5 1.6 0.85 0.1 Bcrpl-MDCKII 17.6 2.1 18.6 1.1 1.06 0.1 BCRP-MDCKII 23.2 5.4 16.0 1.1 0.71 0.1 Mdrla-LLC-PK 13.1 1.3 19.4 1.3 1.48 0.1

-111-[307] The apparent permeability (Papp) was high and comparable to that of metoprolol, the high Papp marker used in the same experiments (data not shown). The efflux ratios (Papp, BA/Papp, A-B) did not markedly differ from 1 in the MDCK or LLC-transfected cells, indicating that GDC-0084 was a poor substrate of the efflux transporters P-gp and BCRP.
[308] Example 27: Determination of Plasma Protein and Brain Binding [309] GDC-0084 protein binding was determined in vitro, in mouse plasma (Bioreclamation, Inc., Hicksville, NY) by equilibrium dialysis using a RED
device (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL), with 300 pL of plasma and 500 pL of phosphate-buffered saline in the two chambers of the device. GDC-0084 was added to pooled plasma (n? 3) at a total concentration of 5 p.M. Plasma samples were equilibrated with phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4) at 37 C in 90% humidity and 5% CO2 for 4 hours. Following dialysis, concentration of GDC-0084 in plasma and buffer was measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The percent GDC-0084 unbound in plasma was determined by dividing the concentration measured in the post-dialysis buffer by that measured in the post-dialysis plasma and multiplying by 100. Incubations were performed in triplicate. Parameters are presented as mean standard deviation.
[310] The free fraction of GDC-0084 in mouse brain was determined as described by Kalvass et al. (Kalvass JC, Maurer TS, Pollack GM, "Use of plasma and brain unbound fractions to assess the extent of brain distribution of 34 drugs: comparison of unbound concentration ratios to in vivo p-glycoprotein efflux ratios", Drug Metab.
Dispos. 2007;
35(4):660-666). Briefly, brain tissue was homogenized in 3 volumes of phosphate-buffered saline and GDC-0084 was added at a final concentration of 5 p.M. Aliquots of 300 pl were dialyzed in a RED device (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL) against a volume of 500 pl buffer for 4 h at 37 C in an incubator at 90% humidity and 5% CO2. Following dialysis, tissues and buffer samples were analyzed as described for the plasma protein binding studies.
[311] The results show that GDC-0084 binding to plasma proteins was low, with a free fraction (%) of 29.5 2.7 (n=3) in mouse plasma, when tested at 5 p.M.
Binding to brain tissues was higher, with a free fraction of 6.7% ( 1; n=3).
[312] Example 28: Modulation of pAkt and p56 in the Brain [313] Inhibition of the PI3K pathway was assessed in the brain of healthy mice through measurement of two markers, pAkt and p56. Female CD-1 mice were dosed PO

-112-with GDC-0084 at 25 mg/kg. Brains and plasma were collected at 1 and 6 hours post-dose, from 3 animals at each time point. Individual brains were split in half for PD
analysis and GDC-0084 concentration measurement. The samples were stored at -80 C and analyzed for GDC-0084 total concentration. For PD
analysis, cell extraction buffer (Invitrogen, Camarillo, CA) containing 10 mM Tris pH 7.4, 100 mM NaC1, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM
EGTA, 1 mM NaF, 20 mM Na4P207, 2 mM Na3VO4, 1% Triton X-100, 10% glycerol, 0.1% SDS, and 0.5% deoxycholate was supplemented with phosphatase, protease inhibitors (Sigma, St.
Louis, MO) and 1mM PMSF and added to frozen brain biopsies. Brains were homogenized with a small pestle (Konte Glass Company, Vineland, NJ), sonicated briefly on ice, and centrifuged at 20,000 g for 20 minutes at 4 C. Protein concentration was determined using BCA protein assay (Pierce, Rockford, IL). Proteins were separated by electrophoresis and transferred to NuPage nitrocellulose membranes (Invitrogen, Camarillo, CA).
Licor Odyssey Infrared detection system (Licor, Lincoln, NE) was used to assess and quantify protein expression. PI3K pathway markers were evaluated by immunoblotting using antibodies against pAktser473, total Akt, pS6Ser235/236 and total S6 (Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA). The differences in marker levels between the treated and control mice were evaluated using the Student's t-test (Prism 5, GraphPad).
[314] Following a single oral dose of GDC-0084 (25 mg/kg), pAkt and p56 levels were significantly lower than those detected in the control animals (Figure 23). Suppression of pAkt and p56 reached 90% 1 hour post dose and stayed greater than 70% 6 hours after dosing (Figure 24).
[315] Example 29: U87 and G52 First Method for Measuring Efficacy in Brain Tumor Model [316] Six female nude mice (Charles River Laboratories) were implanted with either U87 MGM human glioblastoma cancer cells (described elsewhere herein) or G52 tumor cells (Gunther HS, Schmidt NO, Phillips HS, et al., "Glioblastoma-derived stem cell-enriched cultures form distinct subgroups according to molecular and phenotypic criteria", Onco gene 2008; 27(20):2897-2909)), injected via stereotactic surgery into the right striatum (subcortical part of the forebrain) in a volume of 3 to 5 pL (250K U87 cells and 100K G52 cells). A
single oral dose of 15 mg/kg GDC-0084 (further comprising 0.5%
methylcellulose/0.2%
Tween 80 (MCT)) was administered 19 to 21 days post-implantation. Mice were euthanized at 1 and 6 hours post-dose via exsanguination by perfusion under anesthesia.
Brains were excised, flash frozen in liquid N2 and stored in a -80 C freezer until analyzed. Fresh frozen

-113-tissue sections were obtained on a cryomicrotome (Leica CM3050S, Buffalo Grove, IL) at 12 p.m thickness and thaw-mounted onto indium tin oxide coated glass slides (Bruker Daltonics, Billerica, MA). Tissue sections were analyzed by imaging MALDI MS, providing signal intensities (and not absolute quantitation), followed by cresyl violet staining for histological interrogation.
[317] For MALDI MAS analysis, a 40 mg/mL solution of 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) was prepared in methanol:water (70:30 v/v). A stable-labeled internal standard, [D61GDC-0084, was spiked into the MALDI matrix solution at 2 p.M prior to deposition onto the tissue sections. Matrix solution was homogenously spray-coated onto the tissue using a HTX TM-Sprayer (HTX technologies, Chapel Hill, NC).
Matrix-coated tissue sections were transferred to the MALDI mass spectrometer (SolariX 7T
FT-ICR, Bruker Daltonics, Bremen, Germany) for imaging analysis. Imaging data were collected at 100 p.m pixel resolution in positive ionization mode, under continuous accumulation of selected ions (CASI) windows optimized for a 50 Da window centered on m/z 383 (m/z 358-408). Laser intensity and number of shots were optimized for sensitivity of the parent drug (1200 shots) with ion detection collected over the mass range of m/z 150-3000. Drug images were generated based on accurate mass the parent drug (GDC-0084 m/z 383.1938) using FlexImaging v4.0 64-bit (Bruker Daltonics, Billerica, MA) with a mass tolerance of 2 mDa and normalized to internal standard response.
[318] Following completion of the imaging experiments, matrix coating was removed by rinsing the glass slide in 100% methanol for 30 seconds or until the entire matrix was visibly removed. Tissue sections were stained utilizing a freshly prepared 0.5% cresyl violet staining solution (Chaurand P, Schwartz SA, Billheimer D, Xu BJ, Crecelius A, Caprioli RM, "Integrating histology and imaging mass spectrometry", Anal.
Chem. 2004;
76(4):1145-1155) by submerging the glass slide for 30 seconds, then rinsed for an additional 30 seconds in two cycles of 100% ethanol. Microscope images were obtained on an Olympus BX51 (Tokyo, Japan) at 10x magnification and stitched using MicroSuite Analytical v3.0 software (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan). Subsequently, stained images were co-registered to the optical images in FlexImaging for visualization and annotation of tumor and non-tumor regions for the drug images.
[319] To assess drug distribution, imaging MALDI MS data from U87 and G52 tumor models were co-registered to the cresyl violet stained microscope images in FlexImaging Regions of interest (ROIs) that were selected based on the anatomical features

-114-defined in the histological image including tumor and non-tumor regions. Drug intensity for each pixel within the defined ROT was extracted and exported. Drug intensities were binned in 0.1 increments over a range of 0.0 to 2Ø Histogram plots were created in GraphPad Prism to visualize the distribution of pixel intensity frequencies.
[320] Example 30: U87 and GS2 Second Method for Measuring Efficacy in Brain Tumor Model [321] U87 glioblastoma cancer cells (described elsewhere herein) and G52 glioblastoma cells were selected to test the efficacy of GDC-0084 in a mouse brain model.
These U87 and G52 models are PTEN-deficient, with the G52 cell line presenting a copy number loss at the PTEN locus (Gunther HS, et al.) with no detectable PTEN
protein by western blot (Carlson BL, Pokorny JL, Schroeder MA, Sarkaria JN., "Establishment, maintenance and in vitro and in vivo applications of primary human glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) xenograft models for translational biology studies and drug discovery", Curr Protoc Pharmacol. 2011; Chapter 14:Unit 14 16). The identity of the two cell lines was confirmed by STR profiling (DNA Diagnostics Center) using cells within 5 passages of those utilized for in vivo studies. The U87 (250K) and G52 (100K) tumor cells were injected via stereotaxic surgery into the right striatum (subcortical part of the forebrain) in a volume of 3-5 pl. For each experiment, mice were randomized into groups of 10 to obtain comparable mean tumor volumes between treatment and control groups for each model.
Treatments were administered GDC-0084 (15 mg/kg), or vehicle (MCT) PO daily for 2 or 4 weeks, respectively, starting 7 days (U87) or 14 days (G52) post tumor cell inoculation. Mouse body weights were recorded twice per week during the study and animals were euthanized if body weight loss was greater than 20% from their initial body weight. Tumor volumes were monitored by ex vivo micro micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) imaging and T2 MRI
for the GBM models U87 and G52, respectively. The differences between treatment groups were evaluated using Student's t test in Prism (Prism 5, GraphPad). MRI was performed on a Varian 9.4T MRI system with a 30 mm quadrature volume coil. During the imaging, animals were kept under anesthesia with 2 % isoflurane in air. Body temperature was continuously monitored using a rectal probe and was maintained at 37 C by a heated-air flow system regulated by in-house LabVIEW controller software. A T2-weighted fast spin echo, multi-slice (FSEMS) sequence was used to detect lesions by MRI. 12-20 axial 0.5-0.8 mm-thick slices were acquired with a 20 x 20 mm field of view (FOV), and 128 x 128 matrix, zero-filled to 256 x 256 images. TR=3500-4000 ms, TE=9-10ms, ETL=8, k-zero=4, NEX=8.

-115-Tumor volumes were calculated from the T2-weighted FSEMS images using an intensity threshold based region growing tool in MRVision software. Brain sample preparation, micro-CT scanning, and image analysis for ex-vivo micro-CT imaging were performed as described previously (de Crespigny A, Bou-Reslan H, Nishimura MC, Phillips H, Carano RA, D'Arceuil HE, "3D micro-CT imaging of the postmortem brain", I Neurosci.
Methods. 2008;
171(2):207-213).
[322] In the studies conducted with the GS2 tumor-bearing mice, plasma and brains were also collected at the end of treatment to measure GDC-0084 and assess PI3K pathway modulation in the tumor. Each brain was dissected to separate the tumor from the healthy tissues. Plasma and normal brains were processed and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. The tumors isolated from the brains were processed and the PI3K pathway markers pAkt, pS6 and p4EBP1 were measured as described previously.
[323] Example 31: MALDI Imaging results [324] Distribution of GDC-0084 in the brain and intracranial U87 and GS2 tumors following administration of a single PO dose (15 mg/kg) was investigated by MALDI
imaging. Brains were collected 1 hour post dose and images presented in Figures 25A and 25B show that GDC-0084 distributed readily and quite evenly throughout the brain, including in the GS2 (Figure 25A) and U87 (Figure 25B) tumors. In addition, the homogeneity and pattern of distributions of GDC-0084 in the tumors and non-tumored regions of the brains were further analyzed. The frequency of signal intensities (frequency of pixel intensities) appeared to follow a normal distribution in healthy brain, superimposed (mean pixel intensity 0.54) to that observed in U87 tumors (Figure 26A); mean pixel intensity 0.54).
A Gaussian distribution of signals was also observed in GS2 tumors (Figure 26B), with however a slightly lower mean in pixel intensity (0.34 vs. 0.55), suggesting an overall lower GDC-0084 concentration in GS2 tumors than in normal brain. Comparisons of the GDC-0084 signal homogeneity in non-tumored brain regions between the U87 and GS2 tumor-bearing mice showed identical distribution (Figure 26C), confirming the reproducible and consistent brain penetration properties of GDC-0084. Similar results were obtained in brains collected at 6 hours post dose. Furthermore, to contrast the distribution of GDC-0084 to that of a non-brain penetrant compound, MALDI images previously obtained with pictilisib in the U87 tumor model (Salphati L, Shahidi-Latham S, Quiason C, et al., "Distribution of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors Pictilisib (GDC-0941) and GNE-317 in U87 and G52 intracranial glioblastoma models-assessment by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization

-116-imaging", Drug Metab Dispos. 2014; 42(7):1110-1116) were re-analyzed using the approach utilized here. In comparative analysis, reanalysis of data previously obtained with the non-brain penetrant compound pictilisb (Salphati, et al.) showed heterogeneous (non Gaussian) intra-tumor distribution of pixel intensities (Figure 26D). While signal intensities in the U87 tumor for GDC-0084 could be fit to a Gaussian curve, signals from pictilisib were concentrated in the low intensity bins, with a distribution that appeared more heterogeneous (Figure 26D). As compared to pictilisib, GDC-0084 provided for improved homogeneous and undifferentiated compound distribution throughout healthy brain tissue and tumor tissue.
Based on the brain tumor model results, it is believed that GDC-0084 provides for improved treatment, not only the core of the tumor, but also invasive glioma cells protected by an intact BBB or blood-tumor barrier.
[325] Example 32: Brain Tumor Model Results [326] The efficacy of GDC-0084 was tested in the U87 and GS2 intracranial models. GDC-0084 was administered PO at 15 mg/kg daily for 2 and 4 weeks to U87 and GS2 tumor-bearing mice, respectively. The effect of the treatment on the U87 and GS2 tumor volumes was assessed at the end of the dosing period. Images of U87 tumor obtained by micro-CT are presented in Figure 27A. The U87 tumor volumes were reduced by approximately 70%, when compared to the vehicle control, (Figure 27B) following treatment with GDC-0084. Similarly, the GS2 tumors measured by MRI (Figure 27C) in the treated mice were significantly (p<0.01) smaller (z40%) than those in the control group (Figure 27D). Plasma and healthy brain concentrations of GDC-0084 were measured at the end of the study in the GS2 tumor-bearing mice and are presented along with brain-to-plasma ratios in Table 16 below. Brain concentrations in the normal part of the brain and brain-to-plasma ratios were comparable to those obtained previously (Table 9). Modulation of the PI3K
pathway in the G52 tumors was assessed by western blot at the end of the dosing period, 2 and 8 hours after the final administration of GDC-0084 (Figure 28A). Levels of pAkt were significantly reduced at 2 and 8 hours, by 90 and 70%, respectively.
Suppression of p56 and p4EBP1 was less pronounced at 2 hours, reaching 35 and 43%, respectively.
These two markers were back to baseline levels 8 hours post-dose (Figure 28B) [327] Table 16: Plasma Concentrations, Brain Concentrations and Brain-to-Plasma Ratio Measured 2 and 8 hours Following PO Administration of GDC-0084 (15 mg/kg) to G52 Tumor-Bearing Mice (non-tumored half of the brain)
